If everybody in the U.S.A
|
Could come with us to Californ-i-a
|
We could take 'em to a place out west
|
Where the good sun shines everyday
|
|
Now there's a touch o' Californ-i-a
|
In everyone who's ever been this way
|
And when your telephone begins to ring
|
And the operator comes on the line
|
|
California callin'
|
I'll be there right away
|
There's some beautiful women
|
Gonna find me one
|
To show me how to ride the ultimate wave
|
|
Now I've joined the surfin' nation and so
|
I'll take a permanent vacation and go
|
To the golden shores of 'Frisco Bay
|
I'll ride 'em all the way to Malibu
|
|
And I'll take ya' boogie boardin' with me
|
'Cause when we're surfin' it's so great to be free
|
And when you're on a California beach
|
You might even find 'em windsurfin' too
|
|
California callin'
|
I'll be there right away
|
There's some beautiful women
|
Gonna find me one
|
To show me how to ride the ultimate wave
|
|
In the fifties it was "Hey Daddy O"
|
Then came the surfers and the Hodads ya' know
|
We had our woodies and our custom cars
|
And when we drove around we knew we were bad
|
|
My baby listens to my car radio
|
And when we're cruisin' lets the whole world know
|
And when our favorite surfin' song comes on
|
We always let 'em know it's "Totally Rad!"
|
|
California callin'
|
I'll be there right away
|
There's some beautiful women
|
Gonna find me one
|
To show me how to ride the ultimate wave
|
|
California callin'
|
She's still on the line
|
There's a beautiful woman
|
Gonna show me how
|
To ride 'em at the county line
|
|
California callin'
|
I'll be there right away
|
There's some beautiful women
|
Gonna find me one
|
To show me how to ride the ultimate wave
|
